  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of
    Oracle Java SE (component: JSSE). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE:8u441,
    8u441-perf, 11.0.26, 17.0.14, 21.0.6, 24; Oracle GraalVM for JDK:17.0.14, 21.0.6, 24; Oracle GraalVM
    Enterprise Edition:20.3.17 and 21.3.13. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker
    with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle
    GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation,
    deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle
    GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete
    access to all Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data.
    Note: This vulnerability can be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web
    service which supplies data to the APIs. This vulnerability also applies to Java deployments, typically in
    clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run
    untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security.
    (CVE-2025-21587)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
